Limpeza Perigosa

I did NOT expect this to be more than a 7/10 but the characters, the performance by the LEGENDARY Antonio Banderas made this movie so good.

The storyline is even good it's interesting not gonna lie and I like the story it's good.

The characters are good they have a good relationship with each other and they also have their problems with each other and overall try to solve the mystery of whose money are they holding.

The action is also good considering the low budget cost of the movie's production but it turned out to be good , better than I expected for sure

The BEST part about the movie and the main reason I am watching this is because of the LEGENDARY Antonio Banderas he carried the movie EASILY his performance is one of his best , his character is good and everything about him is so good , every scene with him is enjoyable and sometimes unpredictable considering his character's personality but overall I enjoyed his performance so much in here he is the greatest actor of all time.

Overall the movie is fun it exceeded my expectations and gave me this wonderful fun movie!

8/10.

Greetings again from the darkness. Even before the opening credits roll, we get a scene with gunpoint humor, as Antonio Banderas skips right over 'chewing scenery' and dives into devouring the scene. Banderas takes his crime lord Gabriel over-the-top, quoting Machiavelli, so that we understand we are in for an action-crime-comedy. Directed by Jon Keeyes and written by Matthew Rogers, some of it works and some of it doesn't.

When the goal is strictly entertainment, a film should be judged accordingly, especially when it's made under a limited budget. Three years after that opening scene, Gabriel is late on his payoff to the corrupt cops who protect his illegal business ventures, and soon enough, he discovers that a couple of over-zealous thugs have stolen (or at least tried to steal) his money. The case filled with cash is stuffed in the chimney before our next shootout, which occurs in a dark room, creating pretty cool effects.

Siobhan (Oscar winner Melissa Leo, THE FIGHTER, 2010) owns Good Life Cleaners, a crime scene cleaning company. Her crew consists of Alex (Jonathan Rhys Meyers, MATCH POINT, 2005), his girlfriend Meagan (Ekaterina Baker, THE CARD COUNTER, 2021), and Chuck (Swen Temmel, AMERICAN TRAITOR: THE TRIAL OF AXIS SALLY, 2021). When they discover the money, skittish Alex wants to turn it in. Meagan wants to keep it for their future. Siobhan and Chuck have their own secrets as she tries to keep the drug-addicted former military man on the right path.

Things really spiral once this crew begins debating what to do with the money and realizing that The Commission (Gabriel's organization) is pursuing them. Meagan gets taken hostage, setting off a wild chain of events - most of which feature violent shootouts. In addition to Machiavelli quotes, Gabriel is also a fan of playing Russian roulette with his big, shiny pistol, and yelling at his crew to get his money back. It seems that Banderas and Meyers are the leads, but Temmel's Chuck, a one-man wrecking crew, is the more intriguing character, and it's a shame that Melissa Leo is mostly wasted, if not miscast here.

There is a sense that director Keeyes was going for a Guy Ritchie-type experience, however, the dialogue is never quite crackling enough for that level. The action has a bit of FREE FIRE (2016) feel to it, but again, not quite at that level. For one that's entertaining enough to sit through, but also allows time to scroll on your phone, this one delivers.

Available on Digital and On Demand beginning August 20, 2024.

I watched this this movie for days but I had to complete it because I don't leave a movie unfinished poor story line, absolute horrible acting even with my favorite actor Antonio Banderas at first when I saw the movie poster I thought oh wait another Antonio Banderas movie this is gonna be excited but i come here to express my deepest disappointment I've never watched something more cringe and horrible in my life the director of this movie should never make movies again in my opinion also I think popular actors should avoid certain projects like the absolute rubbish I just watched movie lovers deserve the best.

I started watching it because of the (allt time great) actor Antonio Banderas, but even his performance isnt enough to make this worth my while...

The bad: Antonio Banderas' character is pretty silly, but at least his performance has got some charm to it. BUT the other (unknown) Irish actors are plain bland and acting way below average. Mind you, better like watching subtitles otherwise you wouldnt understand half of the Irish accents.

NOT funny. NOT thrilling. NOT original. It's a gangsta comedy WANNABE. The Irish arent any good at making movies. The Brits are. But this is an Irish production and it painfully shows. NOT recommended, not even for the Antonio Banderas fans, of which I am one!

Awful acting, boring script - felt like a second rate Guy Ritchie movie - aiming to be a British crime movie but full.of Irish characters. It's his fault, he started this confusing genre.

This movie pushes the boundaries of how much of a diabolical script can sound funny if spoken in an Irish accent - the answer, not very much of it.

I found myself scrolling on my phone several times throughout the movie. There was no plot interesting enough to drag me back.

Believe me, this movie is terrible - don't waste your money and an hour and a half of your life.

Is this the end of good old British crime dramas, made in the UK and starring accomplished British actors? - Unfortunately it seems so and it really doesn't work.
